Are you a Clothing Production N6 student at Tshwane South TVET College? You have until 20 August 2026 to apply for 53 work‑integrated learning (WIL) places that could give you your first real‑world experience. This chance is offered together with the FP&M SETA and can help you move from the classroom to a workplace.
What the opportunity is
The college is offering 53 WIL placements for learners who have finished the theoretical part of the Clothing Production N6 programme. The placements will be arranged by the college at companies that need extra help in the garment sector.
Who can apply
- Student at Tshwane South TVET College
- Completed Clothing Production N6
- Age between 18 and 35 years
- Willing to be placed at a workplace chosen by the college
What you will gain
During the placement you can develop skills that employers value, such as:
- Professional communication
- Time‑management and punctuality
- Teamwork and following instructions
- Problem‑solving in a production environment
- Understanding of quality standards and safety procedures
These are transferable skills that will strengthen any future CV.
How to apply – step by step
- Prepare a simple, manually written Curriculum Vitae. Do NOT use a CV generated by an app – the advert states that only a traditional CV “as per the high school curriculum” will be accepted.
- Make sure your CV includes:
- Full name and contact number
- Email address
- College name and N6 qualification details
- Any projects or practical work you have done in clothing production
- Save the CV with a clear file name, e.g. FirstName‑LastName‑WIL‑CV.pdf.
- Write a brief email covering:
- The subject line: Application: Clothing Production N6 Work Integrated Learning 2026
- A short intro stating your name, qualification and that you are attaching the CV.
- Email the application to digitalskills@tsc.edu.za before the 20 August deadline.
- If anything is unclear – for example the exact CV format – call the enquiry contact (see below) and ask for clarification.
Tips to improve your chances
- Only apply if you are a Tshwane South TVET College learner. Applications from other colleges will be rejected.
- Check that you meet the age requirement (18‑35).
- Never send a CV created by a template app; a plain Word or PDF document is safest.
- You cannot choose your employer. Be ready for the college to decide the placement.
- Submit your email a few days before the deadline to avoid technical issues.
- Open your attached CV on another device to confirm it displays correctly.
- Be honest. List only the skills and projects you really have – the WIL programme is designed for learners who still need experience.
Next steps
Gather the required documents, write a clear CV, and send your email as soon as possible. After you are placed, treat the experience as a chance to learn, network, and build a track record you can later add to your résumé.
Good luck, and remember that this is a valuable bridge between study and work.
